Please add your own petitions to this list.
We ask Almighty GOD to hear our prayers, and accept our humble offering of fasting and prayer.
If you wish to fast, please be aware that fasting should always be undertaken with prudence.
It is not wise for the ill, the diabetic, pregnant women, very small children and very senior citizens to fast.
However, we can also fast from an unkind word. We can fast by eating a moderate healthy sized portion of food, instead of an unduly large meal. We can fast from cigarettes or alcohol.
We can fast from television programmes.
There are many ways in which we can fast in honour of the Kingdom of GOD/
Good Shepherd Church is engaged on the old fashioned way of fasting.
This we do in honour of our Lord Jesus Christ, remembering His Life, Suffering and Death for our Salvation.
We honour His glorious Resurrection, and humbly beg the LORD to look upon our suffering world and bring about His Signs, Miracles and Wonders among us.
